I think you will find that most, if not all, commercial bullet casters will not use lead you supply. There is no way to confirm what may or may not be in the lead or lead alloy you supply. Commercial casting equipment is quite expensive and they simply can not take the chance that your lead is contaminated with zinc.

You might get lucky and find one who will, but I have serious doubts about that.

National is out of buisness after commiting massive fraud.
try Welcome To Penn Bullets INC. he has the bullets you are looking for and he runs his own foundry and and can take metal on trade and he's just across the ohio border in PA.

i deal with ERMCO,LLC, they are located around the canton area i belive. he's been around awhile. he primarily uses "hornaday", has a nice little factory going on, licsenced, bonded, ect... here's his site and ph. numbs. the-ammo-man.com. 330-894-2444, cell# 330-2842394. i buy off him at gun shows, his prices are verey reasonable , and ammo is fantastic. he will also take your old brass and load for you.

With the scarcity of lead and high cost of casting equipment I am surprised anyone would be wanting to go into casting at this time. There's also the issue of toxic lead fume exposure not only for the caster but his family assuming he casts around his residence. I buy my lead bullets from the closest source to keep shipping costs to a minimum. I also ask for the absolute lowest cost, the last time I ordered lowest cost required ordering 100K bullets. They could be mix and matched, several of my shooting buddies joined me in the order and we had no trouble coming up with an order for 100K. The caster that I dealt with was located in northern Indiana and has since gone out of business. Next time I order I will be looking for a new source and may consider some of the Ohio casters mentioned.
